Dumbarton Quay

Dumbarton Quay
In September 1605 Chancellor Dunfermline reported to King James VI that inundations of the sea were likely to destroy and take away the whole town [of Dumbarton]. It was estimated that the flood defences would cost 30,000 pounds Scots, the cost being levied nationwide. Quoted from Wikipedia

An excellent capture Joe. I am surprised the buses are still running, - that flood water looks quite deep. I hope the next spate of storms bypass you. HFF and have a good weekend

If the flood water had been any deeper, Carol, you wouldn't have been able to see the fence. LOL. Thanks for your very kind comment. HFF and a good weekend. Cheers, Joe

The budget to prevent floods must be somewhat higher, now. Meanwhile, buses leave trails behind, like ships! HFF, Joe!
